Re: Duplicate Folders

Hello again...
I have another couple of problems. I finally had enough time to follow your
procedure to take care of the duplicate folder issue and now I created other
problems.
The problems are that now when I select the Contacts or Calendar tab their
information does not appear. But when I right click either of those tabs and
select 'Open In New Window' everything for that tab is there. So, I know I
haven't lost the information...it's just not opening in its main space.
Additionally, under the 'My Contacts' or 'My Calendar' there is nothing there
like there is for 'My Task' and 'My Notes'.
What do I need to do to fix this problem? I haven't checked yet to see if
the same thing has happened to the other folders like Task or Notes or the
other ones, but if it has will the procedure be the same?
Thanks
Dan
